7 Negative ion current creation and propagation added to VICTER code. Main code calculates ion and fast neutral energy spectra at all radii. Negative ion subroutine calculates creation of negative ions from these spectra. Propagation is considered from sources in three categories: (1)Currents that are born inward and can overcome the potential well, passing through the center of the device. (2)Currents that are born inward and cannot overcome the potential well, being reflected before reaching the cathode. (3)Currents that are born outward. Fast neutral currents from negative ions calculated as negative ions are attenuated. Fusion from negative ions and daughter fast neutrals calculated. Negative ion subroutine treats negative ions as a perturbation on the positive-ion and neutral currents. The VICTER code is not equipped to calculate currents from electron attachment.
